Halloween isn't until next Thursday, but several spots around the coast aren't waiting to begin the spooky celebrations. From haunted lighthouse tours in Pensacola to Howl-O-Ween at an actual wolf preserve near Panama City, there are plenty of options to get your fright on this weekend, as well as a few less-scary options like tonight's sold-out Pensacola Beach Glow Run. Read on for a full roundup.

Howl-O-Ween at Seacrest Wolf Preserve -- The Seacrest Wolf Preserve offers primitive camping, wolf encounters, small animal encounters and much more at its Howl-O-Ween festivities today through Sunday. You can pitch a tent near the wolves for $15 per night, enter your dog in the canine costume contest, or go on a haunted hayride with real wolves howling in the background.

The preserve takes in displaced captive wolves at the 400-acre facility about 40 miles north of Panama City Beach.

Pensacola Beach Glow Run -- The inaugural Pensacola Beach Glow Run, held tonight on Santa Rosa Island, seems to be catching on fast, as the run sold out on Oct. 15. Participants will run a 5K (3.1 miles) course along the beach on Santa Rosa Island, illuminated by neon lights, black lights and glow sticks.

Because it's Pensacola Beach, there will be a pre-party at The Shaka Bar starting at 4 p.m. that includes a costume contest, and an after-party at The Sandshaker. Fire dancers from Up In Flames Entertainment will also be present. Proceeds from the event go to Catholic Charities of Northwest Florida.

Underwater pumpkin carving contest -- Sure, you can carve a pumpkin on land, but can you do it underwater? The Man in the Sea Museum in Panama City Beach is set to find out Saturday with an underwater pumpkin carving contest. Entry is $20. The carving and BBQ starts at 4 p.m.

Fall Festival at Topsail Hill Preserve State Park -- The Topsail Hill Preserve State Park in Santa Rosa Beach, Fla. will host its annual Fall Festival tonight and tomorrow at the facility just south of U.S. 98. The festival runs 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. both nights and features the Tram of Terror ride, as well as carnival games, prizes, food and more.

Haunted lighthouse tour in Pensacola -- Starting at 6 p.m. tonight and Saturday the keepers of the Pensacola Lighthouse on-base at Naval Air Station Pensacola will be offering haunted lighthouse tours at the Pensacola landmark. The cost is $5 for adults or $3 for children.

Pensacola Interstate Fair -- The Pensacola Interstate Fair runs through Sunday at the fairgrounds off U.S. 90. Tonight is the fair's Midnight Madness event, in which the festivities go on until 2 a.m. and one $25 handstamp will get you unlimited rides until the gates close. Rock band Switchfoot will also perform tonight at 7:30 p.m., with country star Travis Tritt taking the stage Saturday at 7 p.m.
